“There has to be one author for each book and I think that is the case,” EP Edward Kitsis says. But EP Adam Horowitz is quick to add: “Different books have different mythologies, so it’s not like we’re going to tell the Author mythology the same way, or the Dark One mythology the same way. There’s going to be new things and new mythology to explore.”
ehhhhhhhh…….
I mean…I guess? If it’s a whole new universe then yeah, sure, the rules are different but 1) that’s gonna be pretty messy and confusing especially if you’re a GA and 2) these writers were never all that great at keeping to rules and logical world-building in check in the first place so I’m not so sure I should put any trust in them when they’re gonna override a lot of their original material because of “different universe” reasons.
